Sportivate in Action

Sportivate is a London 2012 Legacy scheme to promote sport to young people. Today I had the task of visiting a local project introducing young people to climbing.

12 youngsters were working with 3 instructors on the indoor climbing wall at Evolution near Crowborough. What an amazing buzz there was. I was particularly struck by the fact that two young people who had already participated as learners had volunteered to come back and help the instructors. The picture shows Tilly (from the Uckfield Air Training Corps) talking to a couple of new young climbers.
